Hey guys! It’s your friendly neighbourhood Karl here. I wanted to let you all know that 2.0.2 has just been uploaded to the members system. Here’s a run down of the changes:

New Features

1. One Panel now attempts to generate thumbnail images for your posts as you are writing them. Every time you hit ‘Update’ post, the post will be scanned for images to use, and a batch of thumbnails generated accordingly. Thanks to Fahad for suggesting this feature!
2. I have re-written the Contact Form page template. It now uses PHPMailer (already packaged with WP) to send mail. For everyone who has issues with the form I have added some lines to the code that will allow you to enter SMTP details for use with the form. This means if all else fails you can use Gmail or whatever SMTP provider you like to ensure that you are getting your mail from it. I will be doing a tutorial on here and possibly a video explaining how to set this up in the coming week.

Code Refactoring and Bug Fixes

1. Debug console added, and many log entries put in place. OnePanel, and OnePanelConfig objects refactored.
2. The ‘no content on pages’ bug is fixed accross all themes.
3. Switching between themes is no longer a problem.
4. One Panel only runs its license check once.
5. Calls to one-theme.com from inside One Panel changed from post requests to get requests due to issues with servers running mod_security.
6. Fixed two causes of blank modules, although I am not convinced that this is entirely sorted yet.
7. Fixed the issue with utf8 data in the one-panel data causing white screen.
8. Added ‘…’ to the end of the preview content in the featured post.
9. Prevented One Panel code from being fully run whilst browsing normal admin pages.

A full list of fixes can be seen here.

Limited testing has been carried out as of yet, but this version does appear to be fairly stable. As always, please post any bugs on the Bug Tracker so we can get them sorted for the next release in 3-4 weeks.

Enjoy! And thank you for using One Theme.

Karl
